The amount of pottery that you can choose from to paint was a little overwhelming but I landed on a…read moreskateboard. There's also a plethora of paint to choose from. Be aware that some paints are not dishwasher safe. You'll know by confirming with an employee or if there's a specific letter in the paint numbers of your paint tube. You can grab an apron to avoid paint on yourself. If you do get paint on yourself it's able to be washed out but I didn't want to try it. There's one hand wash station where you will also drop off your used paint tiles and paint brushes. Once you get the run down on what to do from an employee you're on your own. There's a display that shows how your paint will look on your pottery depending on if you do 1-3 coats of paint. Time will fly quickly so I painted as much as I could and went over areas a lot. You can have finished pottery shipped to you but it could be more cost-effective to have one person pick up all the pottery if you have multiple and ship it yourself. When you pick up your pottery you'll get to carry it out in the store's new reusable bag. It was very cute. There's not much parking outside but that's the area for you. It's a fun activity to do with a group. Sometimes there might be no conversation going depending on how focused people are on painting but it's also a good time to unwind and turn your brain off.

We settled on All Fired Up in Alpharetta because it was inside but most importantly it was an activity...10 & 7 year olds only have so much of an attention span when hanging out with adults 60+.... I looked online and they suggested reserving a table to make sure you had space BUT the reservation date window was closed online - they want you to do it 3 days in advance (I was 2 days), so I called... They reserved us a table easy peasy. Parking is a little difficult because it's not close to the main Downtown Alpharetta Parking lot - so if you have little kids that aren't easy to contain or don't want to walk far you have to hunt. I parked right off the street (but I got lucky). Give yourself some time to find parking. We walked in and the girl behind the counter was very friendly and super helpful. She explained to my kids what to do in a way that was engaging and they listened. All the ceramics to paint were on the walls grouped by category for the most part. Both of mine painted boxes - $26/$28. My friends painted a light switch and flower - $12/$15 You pick your piece then head to the paint wall and pick up the colors - they suggest no more than 3 colors but it's up to you what and how much. They did say the more "coats of paint" the better it'll look when it's fired. We painted and talked and enjoyed ourselves. Four items came to about $95 which is perfectly fine for an afternoon activity that you then get to keep later. We went on a Wednesday, our pieces will be ready on a Wednesday (so about a week). We had fun. We have a keepsake. And it wasn't blazing hot while we were hanging out with family friends Win win

You don't have to worry about parking except more of the traffic getting in and out of the strip mall. --Ambience-- Similar to other hobby stores, Michaels has a huge variety from fabrics to various other hobbies like wood, holiday decorations, etc. Cashier at the front of the store can vary in organized to disorganized based on the store. This was a clean environment. --Service/Staff-- The staff varies per location from knowledge to newly hired associate. --Products/Service-- Recommended to check the inventory on the website if you are looking for something specific. This is one of the larger Michaels and stocks various items located on their website. --Capacity-- Indoor capacity can hold 100+ people during a Black Friday rush hour. --Overall-- Great location and plenty of parking. I recommend visiting, but check the website before hand for inventory if you are looking for something specific.

There was great selection of clearance items and as a small business owner, I was very excited to grab a lot of of the yarns on clearance value absolutely wonderful I picked up all of the yarn that retail at $13-$15 for five dollars apiece. What I also like is that they sent me discount coupons and vouchers anytime I make a purchase and so I was able to use a $15 voucher and pretty much picked. Jan was $100 for $15. I'm definitely a Happy shopper.

Naturally my favorite gifts were those that were personalized with my name. This shop monograms, shirts, hats, ties, cuffs, pillows etc. If you can imagine it they probably can monogram it. When you walk into this shop, you don't just see a bunch of cute items hanging around, you see women at work. It was like a little front room factory with examples of work completed. They also do screen printing which is great for family reunion shirts, athletic t-shirts or commemorative/celebration tees. Monogramming just adds that perfect touch to any garment or appropriate item. Father's Day is just around the corner so monogramming those golf towels or any sports related gear would probably be appreciated. This little shop is located in the Kohl's shopping center.

I originally stopped by in search of pottery classes--and was delighted to find not only that they offer them, but also that a new session begins on October 13th. In addition, there's a Fall Break Art Camp for grades 2-5, where children will experiment with a range of media including watercolor, acrylics, and collage. As I walked through the space, I was able to watch artists at work and enjoy the current gallery exhibits on display. The atmosphere was inspiring and welcoming. Adult fall classes--running October 6th through December 13th--are also available, covering both visual and ceramic arts. Each class is taught by individual instructors, making it approachable for students of all levels. Best of all, online registration makes it simple to sign up. I was pleasantly surprised to discover that such a wonderful resource has been right in my neighborhood all along. It was a great experience, and I've already registered for pottery classes--something I'm really excited about! If you're looking for a place to explore your creative side, I highly recommend checking out the Art Center. Great value for 8 weeks art class at $280
